 * every time i post a test comment/reply on my blog (i post logged out, with a 
   random name and email) the name and email info i put in stay there constantly.
   I can wipe my cookies, wipe the boxes, basically it doesnt matter what i do the
   info stays there ? ive checked other blogs and this doesnt seem normal, is there
   some way to fix this/ change the period of time the info stays there? any help
   is appreciated thx.

 * Is it your browser keeping this information?
 * I don’t think WordPress is doing this.

 * i also thought it would be odd for wordpress to be doing it but i have wiped 
   everything the browser keeps several times and it only seems to be happening 
   on my blog no one elses ? do you know if its even possible for wordpress to retain
   this info ? any ideas concerning browser, code anything would be appreciated 
   thx. This might sound dumb but could it be because i have the server/website 
   files on my pc

 * It’s not possible.

 * Could be but it’s still likely to be stored via your web browser. Have you tried
   clearing your cache and checking for stored passwords?

 * lol ok this is now a bit odd, this is what i have done so far and the info is
   still there, ive restarted my router to change my ip, ive cleaned all of my browser
   several times to dod standards with a 10 pass wipe, ive removed the server/website
   files from my pc and then wiped my browser again and explorer still retains the
   info. I just installed firefox to eliminate the browser as a fault and it also
   retains the info but only up until i wipe the cookies ect, so it seems to be 
   a fault with explorer, i ll have to hack at that to find the solution. thx guys
   for all the support, its good to know theres a good community here.
